You mean, OTHER than "Dr. Strangelove"?
Gotta be "They Live". "I have come here here to kick ass and chew bubblegum . . . and I'm aaaaalll out of bubblegum."
Still, there's just something to a movie with a line like, "Mandrake, in the name of Her Majesty and the Continental Congress, get over here and feed me this belt!"

Dr. Strangelove is pretty much my favorite film of all time, of [u]any[/u] genre.
From final scene:
Dr.Strangelove: Naturally, they would breed prodigiously, eh? [u]There would be much time, and little to do[/u]. Ha, ha. But ah, with the proper breeding techniques and a ratio of say, [u]ten females to each male[/u], I would guess that they could then work their way back to the present Gross National Product within say, twenty years.
Gen.'Buck'Turgidson: Doctor, you mentioned the ratio of ten women to each man. Now, wouldn't that necessitate the abandonment of the so-called monogamous sexual relationship, I mean, as far as men were concerned?
Dr.Strangelove: Regrettably, yes. But it is, you know, a sacrifice required for the future of the human race. I hasten to add that since each man will be required to do prodigious...service along these lines, [u]the women will have to be selected for their sexual characteristics which will have to be of a highly stimulating nature[/u].
Russian Ambassador: I must confess, you have an astonishingly good idea there, Doctor.

Favorite cult film? Evil Dead 2, 'hand' down.
Has some of the greatest quotes ever, movie references within the film, and is singlehandedly responsible for putting the word 'groovy' back into my vocabulary. Whether that's a good thing or a bad thing is still debatable, though. Plus Bruce Campbell, undoubtedly one of the greatest B movie actors ever. Yes, I am an incredibly huge geek.
"I'm okay, I'm okay." "You just dismembered your girlfriend. Does that seem okay to you?"

Yup, Dr. Strangelove was good. I liked Slim Pickins in any role he played. But for one of my favorite cult classics I'd have to say [i]Tremors[/i]. Who can forget Burt and Heather shooting everything they had at the monster and then Burt saying, "Broke into the wrong goddamned rec room didn't ya?" LOL! That was classic!

The purpose of fighting is to win. There is no possible victory indefense. The sword is more important than the shield, and skill is moreimportant than either. The final weapon is the brain. All else issupplemental.

Phantasm! (actually, the sequel, Phantasm II, was a bit better than the original. And if you get time, don't forget to rent Phantasms III and IV!)
Any movie with a 4-barrelled shotgun, black 71 Cuda, and re-animated dwarves in monk's robes can't be all bad!! [:D]

Let's not forget Army of Darkness
now what was that secret phrase...?
"They Live" was cool, but I thought that "Bubble Gum" line sounded like something Ash would have said.
Cool "Ash" sound bites (don't wander from this page unless you WANT to get grossed out):

Other favorites would be Brazil and Swamp Thing
I don't know if you would call Bladerunner a cult movie, but I've seen it more times than I can count.
Oh yeah, I recently saw an independent film, To Protect and Serve, that was a fake documentary from a police ride-along point of view. Yes it makes fun of cops, but in a way that some police would get a laugh out of.

Hands down its Strangelove!
I have the audio clips on my computers as does my coworker next door...who happens to be our IT manager. Any time we get bored, we begin role playing, pumping up the volume, and quoting from the movie.
Too bizarre...the young whippersnappers in the office all think we're slap happy. I even brought in the DVD one day and we played it in our main conference room (Yes...the Boss was there watching too!), on our corporate AV wide-screen, flat-panel wall-mounted display system. WAY cool.
So...who here recognizes the Playboy centerfold?

Well done Hun! You really are an aficianado...but you left out one very important little fact. Can you remember why she is significant...besides her very fetching form?

'Cause she was the centerfold in the very Playboy magazine that Maj. Kong (Slim Pickens), the pilot of the B-52 bomber known as 'The Leper Colony', was reading when we first saw him!

[i][b]Es tut mir leid[/b][/i], but I cannot obtain the Tracy Reed centrefold for you at this time!
But trust the Hun, Tracy Reed would have fulfilled the Herr Doktor's requirement for women with 'sexual characteristics which will have to be of a highly stimulating nature.'

Well...not exactly! She is in fact, (Are you guys ready for this?) none other than General "Bucky" Turgidson's girlfriend. Really.
More trivia coming...

[b]Schnert, Schnert, Schnert![/b]
Have I got some trivia for you!
That line that you quoted from Maj. Kong:
'Shoot, with all this stuff a feller could have himself a great time in Vegas!'
...was not the way the movie was shot! In the actual filming Maj. Kong says:
'Shoot, with all this stuff a feller could have himself a great time in [b]Dallas[/b]!'
After the Kennedy Assassination in Dallas, but before the picture was released, they dubbed the lines to remove 'Dallas' and put in the replacement 'Vegas' in order not to remind any viewers of the recent tragedy.
You can still see Maj. Kong say 'Dallas' if you watch carefully!

I got the video tape for my b-day a while ago. My favorite part is:
PS as President: " Srangelove, do we have anything like that?"
PS as Strangelove: " A moment, please, Mr President."
Wheelchair and arms flying.
I always have to rewind at least once.

Dr Strangelove Haiku:
Doctor Strangelove says
"Ach, mein fuhrer, I can walk"
Then the world blows up
Go check out the Haiku thread, and take a stab at it. Remember, in feudal Japan, this was a martial art, so, it's not some wussie thing.

Four classics that have not been mentioned yet:
Killer Klowns from Outer Space
-- shadow puppets that eat people!
Dead Alive
-- A Peter Jackson movie! Gore, gore, gore!
Meet the Feebles
-- Muppets on crack! In a porno studio! Peter Jackson Again!
Rocky Horror Picture Show
-- A must see in the theater. In costume!
I know "cult" movies. I host "cheesy" movie nights at my hose, usually have a turnout of 15 to 20 people.

If that is supposed to be German, then Eric the Hun is really Imbroglio....

Jeepers! Don't even say that in jest!

Besides, my German [i][b]ist ein bischen rustig[/b][/i], but the translation, though rough, is pretty much correct!
For 'fella' I would have used [i][b]'Kerl'[/b][/i], which means 'guy.'
And I'm not certain that 'Peppillen' is German for pep pills. [i][b]Aber, wer weisse, wer weisse?[/b][/i]
